Those of you, who are familiar
with American history, know that for every need of this growing country
came men with ambition, zeal, and fortitude to meet each undertaking. A
striking example of this is the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company.

On September 5th, 1920 the east
side of town was destroyed by fire, and on February 25, 1924, the west
side of town was destroyed. These events caused a little band of men
with the same courage and determination possessed by the founders of
this great country, to organize against the evil force. Through hard
work and the ability to overcome many obstacles, they have obtained one
of the most modern Fire Companies on the Eastern Shore.

Chincoteague is proud of its Fire
Company, and it has a right to be. These men have displayed the same
traits of their forefathers, and have met Chincoteague's great need in
its dark hours of struggle. Today, they are still serving Chincoteague
and living up to their motto "Service for Others".
